A SEVEN-seat MPV is Volkswagen’s latest product in the Philippines.
Called the Volkswagen Caddy, the model comes in two variants; Comfortline and Sportline, both of which powered by a 1.6-liter, turbocharged, direct injection diesel engine that is mated to Volkswagen’s seven-speed transmission called Direct Shift Gear. In this configuration, power output is rated at 100 hp and 250 Nm, which Volkswagen said is “more than enough to efficiently transport cargo and passengers.”
The brand added the Caddy is the “ideal MPV for families” because of its “flexible seating configuration, as well as its generous cargo space.” It also noted its MPV’s safety features, which include front, side and curtain air bags, hill-hold control, flat-tire indicator and electronic engine immobilizer.
Among other items, the Caddy is also fitted with cruise control, a touch screen audio with six speakers and Bluetooth connectivity, leather steering, fog lights in front and power folding side mirrors. The Sportline variant gets additional equipment like 17-inch alloy wheels, a driver alert system, body-colored protective side moldings with chrome inserts, smoked rear lamp covers, and silver roof rails.
The Caddy Sportline, priced at P1.480 million, is offered in a Fontana Red body color while the Caddy Comfortline, which costs P1.430 million, comes in Candy White, Deep Black Pearl and Chestnut Brown paint jobs.
